Nope! Sorry. There are no other reasons.

All I've got is a uterus. And I'm learning to accept it.

Well put that uterus to use and get some dude to buy you a couple handbags!!!!!
 
I mean, if you can find a man that is "chivalrous" enough to know he needs to buy his uterus multiple handbags....

And I dont know what a Keepall is either.

Jeez...that's quite a few months of rent right there...

A Keepall bag is very useful if you do a lot of traveling. The Keepall comes in different sizes like 45, 50, 55, 60 etc. (The Speedy comes in 25, 30, and 35) The bigger the number the bigger the size. Keepall 45 is the only bag that is small enough to fit in the overhead compartment on the airplane. Keepall 50, 55, and 60 must all be check in.

Here are a few examples:

Well, that's good to know. Because the 60 may be large enough to live in, and in that case I could just skip paying rent entirely! 😉

So I was reading through this thread, and I just HAD to say something. What's up with all of these men who don't want to behave like men? I think it's interesting that the only proponents of chivalrous behavior (i.e paying for a gf's dinner) are women from the east, or with eastern backgrounds. My bf and I have been dating for almost 7 years and he still insists on always paying for me when we go out.
I have always thought that a woman should behave like a woman, and a man should behave like a man.

I think it's true that East coast has more chivalry. and YES uterus/giving birth how can u possibly trumph that? Who hasn't lived in one for ~9months? HM?

No, these bags are investments. I've spent my whole life seeking a physical product that represents my inner psyche. I hope she's grateful that she can invest in these bags. It sure beats the stock market! 🙂 🙂 🙂 😛 😛:d

Unfortunately, that just means your uterus is not prominent enough to find a guy to pay your rent.
 
Or is it 240?

LOL, how romantic
 
Pay for dinner? No.

Pay for random chicks' drinks...ya! lol....
 
We've already concluded that I'm what everyone should aspire to be and/or date depending on gender and/or sexual preference. I clearly have superior hat pointing skills. Lock thread.

Hence the term "aspire". And my wife wouldn't care anyway. Interestingly, there was actually a thread once where there was a debate as to whether or not I was gay based upon a picture I posted. I thought it was funny. Maybe you can dig it up.

Hi adenoma, of course I know how much Chanel vintage goes for; That's how I paid my way through pharmacy school. My stockbrocker recommended an index fund in the tech-heavy NASDAQ, but I said screw that, I'm thinking Chanel....buy buy buy!

Well, we all know the market tanked ~40%, but Chanel skyrocketed. It's recession proof too! I fired that fool and laughed all the way to the bank. :woot:

Why do you say that? I wouldn't have thought that you were the jealous type. What do you have to be jealous of?

I'm dealing with jealousy right now. It's no fun. He's even jealous of me joke texting with my Asian friend from work, i.e. "Cravin an Asian". Hehe. My friend's name was too common, a name like Matt, so I told him that I'd rename him that instead of sending him messages that were meant for someone else. :laugh:

So he feels that way about you? That's impressive.
I've seen so many men who end up complaining a lot about their girlfriends and wives, to the point of it being inappropriate. Maybe it all just depends on what each person brings to the table???





Uterine transplants are pretty lucrative right now. Our professor brought it up during women's health lectures, and the figures that she was quoting were pretty high- something crazy.


Priapism, Spiriva, and anyone else who doesn't understand the value of a Saudi Arabian uterus- here's uterine transplantation, Saudi Arabia, and the use of anti-rejection pharmaceuticals all rolled into one.

Well, you have to take into account ..... most/some boyfriends will say one thing to their girlfriend, and a completely different thing to their friends. Much along the lines of "you are amazing, my life is incomplete without you" to the girlfriend and to their friends, all they do is bitch bitch bitch about their girlfriends and wives.

NOT saying this is the case here - just is the case in a lot of couple's I have seen ....

I have an irrational fear of being cheated on... probably because my mom and aunts have all been cheated on at one point. Despite the fact that my bf and I really love each other, I can't help my mind from wandering into weird imaginations about him being seduced by another woman, no matter how unattractive she is. And knowing the pain/consequences of infidelity makes me passionately fight against whatever subsequent behaviors that could lead to an act of indiscretion. But on the flip side, I'm a good gf to him to prevent him from wanting anything else. 🙂

I bet your bf is jealous, because he knows what the guy is thinking. lol. He may trust you, but he aint gonna trust the guy. :d

Bf loves me cus I'm a cute little keeper. 🙂 When he's sick, I make him chicken soup and cut little heart shaped carrots into the soup. 😀 And I get along quite well with his family.
 
I guess some pharmers are living in totally different worlds. Sometimes it scares me because i wonder, if most pharmacy students come from absurdly affluent backgrounds how hard it is going to be to put up with their spoiled asses for 3 years (pardon the language)

First of all, $650 for a date is absolutely appalling .. that's like half the cost of a freakin wedding !!! (two couples i know recently married for under $2000 each!) Anyone who expects their boyfriend to spend that on them regularly should probably take a look at their standards in life long before wondering about the appropriateness of the man-woman dynamic.

I dont know what kind of complex some of you ladies have, but where i come from, a girl who is seen as being financially clingy (aka a leech) is the absolute last thing a guy wants. Honestly, a woman does not deserve to be able to argue constantly for equality and rights, and then also demand to be treated like a special princess by default. Dont get me wrong, i have no problem treating my girl to dinner, drinks, and a movie occasionally, (and would do that frequently If I made more money than her), but the guy paying 100% for the house, car(s), vacations, kids, etc is more than unfair.

I agree with whoever else said earlier -- if the guy is paying for everything in his wife's life, ie, if she is insisting on old fashioned values or family arrangements, etc, then the guy probably deserves to expect dinner served to him every night, sex whenever he wants it, and the wife to constantly attend to the kids and his needs, after all, if he's spending the majority of his disposable income on someone else, he should get something more back than just the knowledge that he is fulfilling the "man's" role. At that point he could just live with his best friend, hire a full time mistress, maid, gardener, and cook, and get the same deal, except he wouldnt be screwed in a divorce.

To me, spending money on my girl is a way to show respect, so i defintely understand what you're saying there shc, but in my value system, you dont give respect endlessly without getting it back. Not only would I feel taken advantage of if I had to buy my way to a relationship (constantly), but I would probably no longer respect the girl in the end after it quickly became obvious that she was a leech/gold digger. However, i am not attracted to "helpless" or "dependent" women anyway. So likely this situation would never come up.

PharmD student and Farscape girl have some things right though 👍, a woman who can support herself and is eager/willing to go 50/50 or alternating dates is very attractive for that reason alone, because that shows me *she* knows the value of respect, for a person's hard work and time spent earning money. That's how i always play it.. I mean, no problems paying for the first date, since it's always better to not let things get awkward, but in all my dates, either in or out of a relationship, it's always been either alternating, or the person with more money pays more often, but the other person always contributes. Now that feels like respect. For me, feeling like I'm in a relationship with an equal in terms of independence and assertiveness is essential. Much more fun than feeling like you're just paying for someone to go out with you.

SHC, can you answer me a question?? If you get pregnant, are you going to insist on quitting your job entirely to raise the child???

If I have kids, I plan on cutting back to part time to raise them with my wife as equals. (so far all gfs and acquaintances have applauded my plan) And if i'm not making enough money for my wife to afford her designer handbags, then she can freakin increase her hours or get a 2nd job to pay for it. But hey, that'd never happen to me, since i only date women who arent materialistic.

Sorry for rambling.. i just think some people on this board could use a reality check with regard to money.. and also to relationship entitlement.ness.

Dont get me wrong i'm a huge supporter of women's rights.. I think equality helps women a lot. I dont think they should be given special treatment though. Although the pregnancy thing is a legitimate medical issue.. if they want to take off, let them take off.. there are more people who probably need it than people who abuse it. And a relationship should be about give and take, and equality. People should contribute their fair share.

SHC i have nothing against you as a bag collector, personally. If that's your custom, whatever you want to do with your spare money is cool with me. I think it's a little weird.. but i guess that's how people from the coasts live.

If you want to get pregnant during pharmacy school you should do it on the last day of your P4 year. That is the best time to get pregnant.

Yeah..I personally dont think raising kids should be a role limited to the female parent. I think society would be way better off if more men were raising their kids at least some of the time.. better for the men to develop values in themselves and better for the kids to have multiple perspectives. But i come from a family where my dad didnt have that option. I think this is one of the biggest advantages pharmacy offers, is the flexibility in jobs, and the ability to support a family on only a part time income.

I think that you have misunderstood, and taken what some of us have taken to an extreme. I don't consider SHC, or myself, or Kirby "leeches" because of certain ideas we may have. I don't think we have unrealistic expectations, and while I do consider myself lucky with the way my parents raised me, I'm not a "spoiled ass" as you so eloquently stated. I also find it offensive that you would think that it would be hard to put up with people "like us" during pharmacy school.

We all have our own expectations, our own morals, and our own ways of living our lives and raising our families. From my stand point, it's not a sign of respect to buy someone dinner, it is simply customary. And from my experience, a sign of respect is to be polite to your significant others' family, to respect their opinions, and to be a real partner.

I completely agree with you that a relationship should be about give, take, and a partnership. I guess we just have different understandings of what exactly a partnership is.

It's not an oxymoron, it's the way things should be. So many feminists want so much equality, that they expect to be treated like MEN. I could never understand this.

My parents have 25,000 saved for my wedding and I expect my future husband's family to contribute 25,000 as well. 🙂 $2000 for a wedding? 😱

I understand where you are coming from. I think it is wrong for a woman to date a guy if it is only for the money. When I hear golddigger I think of a woman that is dating a guy she hates just for the money. I would never date someone for the money only. I have mention before if an guy asked me out to a Five Star restaurant and I don't like him, I would rather stay at home and eat instant noodles than go out with him.

With dating I believe initially the guy should pay for dinner. However after they are offically boyfriend/girlfriend, the guy should still pay for dinner, but the girlfriend should do things to show that she cares. Like bring him dessert sometimes, bring him some food sometimes, buy him small personal gifts to show that she cares, help him out when he needs it (like clothes shopping! 😀), etc etc. You know what I mean. Little small things to show him that I care. However, I only do those things after I have known the guy for a long time. If a girl does those things in the very beginning it means she is very desperate and its not good.

With marriage to be honest I can't see myself marrying someone with less money than me. I don't expect a super rich guy (though that would be nice 😀) but he has to have more money than me which isn't expecting much at all. I think a husband should be able to support his family! Shocker I know! 😱 Which means that if I have a kid, I could have an option to stay home and take care of the child. I think the husband's job is to pay for the basics which is a house, car, and bills. The wife's job is taking care of the child, make sure the house is clean, and cooking. (I personally don't mind housework, as long as its IN DOORS, its not bad) However, if the wife wants things of her own (everyone have things that they like to own, my happen to be handbags/shoes) than she will need to get a part-time job to pay for them. I have expensive taste, but I have NEVER said once that I expect a man to buy anything for me. If there is something that I want to buy, I will get a part-time job and I will buy it myself. I have been that way since I was 16 years old, so I don't ever see that changing.

You ask if I wanted to stay at home when I have a child? Yes, I would if I have a husband that can support me completely. However, if he can only pay for the basics (house, cars, bills) than I would get a part-time job to have some extra spending money on the side.
